New Visions Emerging Professions by Corey Ingham


New Visions Emerging Professions

Corey Ingham

The New Visions Emerging Professions program allows students to take part in college courses while also exploring a specific field of interest.  This year long program offered to high school seniors allows students to explore a possible career in justice, healthcare, or emerging professions such as engineering, teaching, or veterinary work. 

I was accepted in New Visions during my junior year, and I was interested in learning more about possible engineering fields in which I had an interest.  The program also allowed me to take college credit courses at SUNY Brockport which could be transferred in the future.  The opportunity to take both high school courses, college courses, and take part in job shadowing opportunities allowed me to take full advantage of my senior year.  My favorite part of the New Visions program is it places more individual responsibility on yourself because it requires that you manage your own time and assignments.  Since you go on internships twice a week and only have class three days a week, it is crucial to be responsible and make sure you do not fall behind as it is up to you to manage your own work.  Another aspect of the program that I greatly enjoy is the internships.  They have allowed for me to explore several different fields of engineering by visiting many different engineering firms.  Both the individual responsibility of the program and the opportunity to tour different engineering firms has allowed me to explore what different jobs are available in the field in which I am interested. 

My decision to take the New Visions program throughout my senior year has opened up a realm of career opportunities following college.  The knowledge I have gained through my internships has allowed me to narrow down the career I am interested in pursuing as well as explore potential other areas of interest.
